Sadly, this potato did not change my life. It was kind of dry. The photo on Seasaltwithfood made it look absolutely delicious, but this is one of those cases when looks can be deceiving. (Let's face it, good food photography can make anything look better than it tastes.) Don't get me wrong. It's a potato that's been baked. It'll be good. It's just that if you're going through the trouble, there are better ways to cook a potato. That's all.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 3 russet potatoes
Directions
Preheat oven to 425ยบ.
Rinse and scrub potatoes. For each potato, cut thin slices across it taking care not to cut the potato all the way through to the bottom. Place potatoes on a baking sheet.
Melt butter. Combine with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Drizzle liquid on the potatoes, being sure to get in-between the slices.
Bake for an hour or until cook through and centers turn soft.
Serve warm.

Now if you put a pat of butter between each slit...well, that's definitely worth the effort.
